Zendesk continues to surge in popularity, and we’re finding that a lot of our customers are using it, especially for Call Center agent scripts. Over the past weeks, we’ve had a lot of great conversations with our clients using Zendesk, and have come up with a big update to our Agent Scripting solution!

Update: Watch this 3 minute video to see the Zendesk Agent Scripting App in action:

Here’s an example of what you’ll see in the right side of Zendesk when opening a ticket.

New and Notable in Version 6:

We’ve included Agent Feedback (the orange chat bubble) – now, an agent can send notes to the Authors of the tree from any node – this feedback loop helps authors continually improve the tree scripts.

You can now have multiple scripts run from within the app. First, you’ll need to set up Zendesk Brands. When a ticket is opened or the brand changes, the app locates a tree associated with that brand (h/t Dave T).

There is no more custom field needed – this was causing an extra “Zingtree Agent Scripting” field to appear in mobile ticket forms (h/t Emanuela).

All the latest publishing features are present in the app, including Scoring nodes.

If you want the tree to display in Panels style, check Display in Panel style. Otherwise, the tree will display in Buttons style.

Optional: To take advantage of having the Agent Scripting App choose a tree according to brand, check Open script based upon Brand. Then, enter your API Key located in Zingtree, under Account, Organizations and Billing at the bottom of the page.

Click Install.

Making Trees Trigger According to Zendesk Brand:

Using Zingtree’s Tree Tags, your App can select the tree that corresponds to the current Brand in use on a Zendesk ticket. Switching Brands will also switch the tree script displayed. Here’s how to set this up:

In Zendesk Admin, go to Manage Brands, and locate the subdomain of the brand. For example, if the brand is listed as myproduct.zendesk.com, the subdomain is myproduct.

In Zingtree, go to the Settingstool for your tree, and add the Zendesk subdomain as a Tree Tag.

Bonus: Insert Agent Name into Your Script

Many call center scripts start with something like “Hello, this is ______” . You can automatically insert the name of the agent into your script simply by adding #agent#anywhere you want the agent name to appear.
